#17 - False positives, false prophets and rampant GOP falsehoods
In this edition of Gilbert and Busfield, Tim is bummed about the temporary shutdown of ABC's "For Life" after a series of false positive COVID-19 tests while Tim and Melissa call bullshit on the rampant falsehoods, hate, racism and division sowed by Trump and his sycophants and supporters, and issue an urgent plea for love, kindness and to vote.
Gilbert & Busfield is produced by the smoke-addled Josh Kerns from Cypress Point Podcasting in Seattle, and recorded in the kitchen of the Gilbus estate and bear sanctuary in Highland Lake, NY (no animals were harmed in the making of this podcast)

#12 - Good Trouble, Necessary Trouble
Not for the faint of heart, thin skinned, narrow minded or bigoted, Melissa and Tim get hot and go deep in celebration of the life and legacy of civil rights icon and Congressman John Lewis, Trump et al's continued assault on democracy, the hypocrisy of religious zealots who fail to practice what they preach and more (in other words, if you don't want to hear some brutally tough talk about politics, religion, language and Melissa's body parts, you might want to sit this one out).
Oh, and for a little lightheartedness and triviality, Melissa's dishing on her new spread in US Magazine about the 25 things people don't know about her:
